+The Grml project provides a fairly exhaustive interactive setup (referred to
as //grmlzshrc// throughout this document) for the amazing unix shell zsh
(http://zsh.sourceforge.net). This is the reference manual for that
setup.
//grmlzshrc// behaves differently depending on which user loads it. For the
root user (**EUID** == 0) only a subset of features is loaded by default. This
behaviour can be altered by setting the **GRML_ALWAYS_LOAD_ALL** STARTUP
-VARIABLE (see below). Also the umask(1) for the root user is set to 022,
-while for regular users it is set to 002. So read/write permissions
-for the regular user and her group are set for new files (keep that
-in mind on systems, where regular users share a common group).
+VARIABLE (see below).
+
+Users may want to keep an up-to-date version of the setup (possibly from the
+git-sources) in //~/.zshrc//. If that happens on a system where the global
+zshrc is also a //grmlzshrc// (but possibly an older one), you can inhibit
+loading the global version by doing:
+\
+```
+echo setopt no_global_rcs >> ~/.zshenv
+```
+
+Note, that this will disable //ANY// global files, except for the global
+zshenv file.
